Famous quotes containing the words modern and/or times:

    The whole imposing edifice of modern medicine is like the celebrated tower of Pisa—slightly off balance.
    Prince Charles (b. 1948)

    A hook shot kisses the rim and
    hangs there, helplessly, but doesn’t drop

    and for once our gangly starting center
    boxes out his man and times his jump

    perfectly, gathering the orange leather
    from the air like a cherished possession
    Edward Hirsch (b. 1950)
